Despite the fact that Japanese MKs can, and have beaten our MKs, therefore they are AT LEAST as good as ours, if not better?mhm I think Leon could beat Japanese MKs.
Is this what it feels like to be Europe?I honestly think France is one of the better regions in the world. if Quik can beat almost all of japan even with bad matchups, Leon would probably beat them all. Leon only loses in America because of lolMK. America is meh atm.
They're probably worse tbh. Just look at videos.Despite the fact that Japanese MKs can, and have beaten our MKs, therefore they are AT LEAST as good as ours, if not better?
Stay 'merican. Hey, bible belt right? Having no arguments must be commonplace for youIs this what it feels like to be Europe?

I think its pretty dumb to say "thats just the ditto" when Japan came over and beat ESAM, Coney, Illmatic, ADHD, DEHF, Trela, NAKAT and Mikehaze AND Mr. R. But somehow in all of that you think they might be good at "just the ditto".That means they are good at the ditto.
Thats one match.
Sorry but have they beaten Leon? Nope. Leon is probably better than Mr R in terms of talent (shout outs to Mr R tho) and I honestly think that neo-Leon would beat Japan.I think its pretty dumb to say "thats just the ditto" when Japan came over and beat ESAM, Coney, Illmatic, ADHD, DEHF, Trela, NAKAT and Mikehaze AND Mr. R.

Europe's best players came over here and lost to ROB, Sonic and Lucas but you think maybe Japan won't know matchups?
leon is nothing special. neither is ramen. and apparently neither is gluttony (lost to ****ing lucas dawg). they are cool to watch but they still lost every time they traveled. EU is the worst brawl region. i mean **** they couldn't even win IMPULSE, a MK banned tourney. hate to say it but yall are worse than canada and mexico by a big margin.
japan>america>canada>mexico>europe
DEHF=Larry.Japan also beat Larry (Falco) and Ally (who used Snake MK AND Wario against Otori and none of them worked)
As I said, he lost to the people (gnes/trela) who lost to the people (ESAM/Brood) who lost to Otori (or Ally who then lost to Otori). While they didn't get knocked out by Japanese MKs, they still lost to a quality of player that isn't consistent with some hidden ability to defeat Otori, Kakera, Rain etc. Especially when its shown that the people that beat him still didn't even have a close set with Otori.Tesh- EL wasn't around during Apex, AFAIK, so given just the statement that he was responding to, his point is valid. As for your list of players, Gnes lost to Esam and DEHF, Ramin lost to Ocean/Rich, ADHD lost to Razer/Nietono, Trela lost to Brood and.. I don't remember who.
Point is, some of the players you listed, while they did lose to Japan, didn't lose to Japanese MKs, which is what the conversation was about. As such those names aren't particularly relevant (and there may have been more- not including situations such as Otori may be (hypothetical, I don't know- I just know he was the common MK between Esam, Ally, and Coney) the MK that beat all the others so that would only speak to his ability to know MUs opposed to top Japanese players in general).

Now, I will very readily admit that, on average, I believe top Japanese players know MUs better than top American players (Anti excluded), but the examples you listed were pretty intellectually dishonest.
Xonar, quit trolling the poor people =(
Although I do agree that, strictly raw talent, Leon is likely better than Ramin. He is sooo smart it's unfair.
Honestly that was Leon back then. Neo-Leon is better, obviously. He grew faster than other smashers overall from what I've seen from videos.
It's not a big claim, really. Just look at the players and use fair judgment.
Stop straw-manning my argument and then discrediting yourself lol. It looks wack-o.
iono what you are talking about, but I think the idea of Leon being an international threat is laughable and I think most people would agree. No marth has ever been and no marth ever will be.You guys disregarding my posts as trolling proves my point lol. Get arguments or get out.
also LOL@Seagull trying to outcredit me. I live in Europe. How often have you played Ramin and Leon?.. Oh. Right. Back to practice mode bro![]()
I can understand that view point. The way you phrased your post though led to a very different meaning being draw however. That's all I wanted to point out =)As I said, he lost to the people (gnes/trela) who lost to the people (ESAM/Brood) who lost to Otori (or Ally who then lost to Otori). While they didn't get knocked out by Japanese MKs, they still lost to a quality of player that isn't consistent with some hidden ability to defeat Otori, Kakera, Rain etc. Especially when its shown that the people that beat him still didn't even have a close set with Otori.
This, I don't agree with though (I mean, Europe is dominated by Ramin and Leon- that's more than one country!).iono what you are talking about, but I think the idea of Leon being an international threat is laughable and I think most people would agree. No marth has ever been and no marth ever will be.
Mikeneko getting 2nd and 3rd multiple times in japan , yeah defintely no national threat there. it's unfair for us cause we get a limited amount of chances to do well in the states, If I lived in the states for over a year, I would win at least one tourney.As I said, he lost to the people (gnes/trela) who lost to the people (ESAM/Brood) who lost to Otori (or Ally who then lost to Otori).

Idk man, Larry might disagree with you on this.Ramin>Leon. Anyone who has played both of them can see this.
